This demonstrates a first version of our replacing menu, using GAction and GMenuModel. I had to make our own subclass of GtkMenu to process the model (from a .ui XML file) for the following reasons: * gtk_menu_new_from_model() doesn't support tooltips, which is a feature we use quite extensively in GIMP: with all our filters, being able to give a longer description is often useful; moreover we use tooltips to give hints about why a menu item is deactivated as well. Unfortunately it looks like GTK doesn't consider this lack as a problem and don't plan on adding tooltip support. See: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/785 * I won't to avoid copying action's label and icons in the .ui file. This only duplicates strings and would be a source of issues each time we change action's strings (we'd have to do it in 2 places, which someone will inevitably forget). Now it still has various issues: * The syncing between actions and menu items need to be cleaned up. It's still in early demo code. * It uses directly some Gtk*Action code because GimpRadioAction and GimpToggleAction are not directly related right now (only through their parents). * gtk_application_set_menubar() might still be necessary on macOS as I think it's what enables the native menu system on this OS. It means that we'll have to edit the menu model to add back the labels (as this function does not extract these from the linked action since GAction has no label or icon concept). * Icons are not taken into account right now. * I'll have to verify if GimpAction with proxy work (but my guess is that right now, it won't). * Action's active state is not synced with menu item active state right now. * Various actions are inserted live, such as opened images, opened views, recently opened images, and so on. This needs to be implemented back. * Plug-ins need to be able to create their own menu item into this new menu. * For all these various reasons, I'm keeping the old menu around, for the sake of comparison, until the time the new one becomes feature-full. Part of this commit is inspired by !558 and obsoletes this MR. |

------------------------------
GNU Image Manipulation Program
2.99 Development Branch
------------------------------
This is an unstable development release, an intermediate state on the
way to the next stable release: GIMP 3.0. GIMP 2.99 may or may not do
what you expect. Save your work early and often. If you want a stable
version, please use GIMP 2.10 instead.
If you think you found a bug in this version, please make sure that it
hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is
still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet.
If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
1. Web Resources
================
GIMP's home page is at:
https://www.gimp.org/
Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there.
The latest version of GIMP can be found at:
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
2. Contributing
===============
GIMP source code can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/
Resources for contributors:
https://developer.gimp.org/
In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:
* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/
3. Discussion Channels
======================
We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:
https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html
Links to several archives of the mailing lists are included in that page.
Gimp-user-list is a mailing list dedicated to user problems, hints and
tips, discussion of cool effects, etc. Gimp-developer-list is oriented
to GIMP core and plug-in developers. Gimp-gui-list is for discussing
about GIMP interface to improve user experience. Most people will only
want to be subscribed to gimp-user-list. If you want to help develop
GIMP, the gimp-developer mailing list is a good starting point; if you
want to help with GUI design, the gimp-gui list is where you want to
subscribe.
Other discussion channels can be listed on this page when they are
moderated by a team member, such as forums.
Finally, for the real junkies, there are IRC channels devoted to GIMP.
On GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network) there is #gimp.
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
irc.us.gimp.org:6667
irc.eu.gimp.org:6667
4. Customizing
==============
The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.
You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/menurc`.
Have fun,
